Nando’s has secretly hiked prices by 8% – see the list of menu changes

CHEEKY Nando’s has secretly hiked its prices — by up to eight per cent.

The restaurant chain has added 55p to the cost of its whole chicken dish after suffering “the most challenging year” in its history.

The price of ten chicken wings with two sides has risen to £15.45 from £14.95, and a houmous with peri-peri drizzle has gone up from £3.95 to £4.25.

Nando’s made the move in the last few months without warning customers.

It is a blow to Brits already facing a massive squeeze in living costs.

Sarah Coles, of investment firm Hargreaves Lansdown, said: “It’s  et another rise in costs for families being put under pressure from all sides.

“We’re already having to sacrifice an awful lot of the ‘nice-to-haves’ to make ends meet.

“A cheeky Nando’s may have escaped the cut for some because it’s been a relatively affordable treat.

"Unfortunately, these price hikes may well make people think twice about whether they have to let go of this, too.”

Nando’s suffered a £242million pre-tax loss in the year to February 2021 — and a £99million loss the previous year.

A spokesman told The Sun it was down to “the continued rise in the cost of ingredients and the difficult trading environment caused by Covid”.
